ARE U OK? http://geni.us/sva4iUY
Eating disorders can be scary and at times feel completely out of control. TodayI am offering up 7 facts about anorexia and why it's so important that we get help as soon as we can. I know recovery from an eating disorder is difficult, but know that you are not alone and you can get through it!
1. Bad breath. This actually has nothing to do with our dental hygiene, it really happens because we aren't giving it enough nutrients and our body is eating itself to survive. The bad breath that comes with EDs is very different from regular bad breath, and the only way to make it go away is by nourishing our bodies.
2. Heart problems. When we don't give our body enough food and nutrients it begins to eat other parts to keep us alive. One of the things it will break down is muscle. Since our heart is a muscle, this can weaken it and lead to heart attacks. I have seen this when I worked in inpatient eating disorder treatment centers. Please be careful and go get a check up asap!
3. Osteopenia & osteoporosis. Just like I stated before, when we don't give our body enough food and energy it will begin eating away at our muscles and our bones. It will leech the calcium from our bones to keep us alive. This can lead to the breaking down of our bone density, but if we catch it early enough we can usually repair it!
4. Skin and hair issues. Firstly our hair will fall out because it's honestly seen as an extra in many ways. We don't need it to survive, therefore our body will stop producing it as it looks for ways to save energy. Also, our skin can sag and age rapidly. Our skin needs fat, water and many different types of nutrients to look supple and smooth. If we are starving our body our skin will look starved too.
5. Cognitive functioning. If we are starving ourselves, we cannot focus or remember things properly. Our brain needs a lot of energy to function! Especially fats and proteins. If we aren't giving that to our body, it can't do all that we need it to and we may forget things, not be able to concentrate at work or school and we will struggle to keep up with our work.
6. Anorexia doesn't discriminate. It doesn't care who you are, what age, race or gender we are. Eating disorders are a coping skill and they can happen to anyone.
7. Recovery is possible!! With the proper help and support we can over come our nasty ED!!! Trust me, I have seen it happen for so many others and I know it can happen for you.
Please share this video! You never know who could be struggling or who may know someone else who is. xox

If you or someone you know is in immediate danger, please call a local emergency telephone number or go immediately to the nearest emergency room.

In this video we are going to cover eating disorders, and in particular, anorexia.
You may not be aware of this, but four out of 10 people have either personally experienced an eating disorder or know somebody who has. So what exactly is an eating disorder, you may ask?
An eating disorder is a psychological disorder, so mental disorder, that causes somebody to adopt an unnatural attitude and approach towards food and their way of eating. The individual usually then develops an obsession about their weight and body shape, which in turn causes them to hurt their health as they make unhealthy choices about food.
Even though there are many eating disorders, anorexia is probably the most well known.
Actually called Anorexia Nervosa, but usually referred to as simply Anorexia, it is an intense fear of being fat that leads to restrictions in both the amount and / or the type of food that the person consumes. This particular eating disorder usually entails that the person is unable to see the reality of their body shape and situation, and sees their self worth as being heavily linked to their body image.
Eating disorders and anorexia may not seem too serious and you may be thinking that not a lot of harm can come out of this. However, anorexia is the psychiatric disorder that causes the most amount of deaths and in fact, every 62 minutes one person dies as a direct result from an eating disorder[3]. Death is usually caused either by suicide, or as a result of organ failure, typically the heart, as the body lacks vital nutrients.
So, who can get it?
Anyone can develop anorexia, but it is not, however, entirely clear why some people are more susceptible to it than others.
There are, however, a number of factors that make a person more prone to falling into it. There are certain personalities (such as perfectionists) and character traits that a person may have that can increase their chances of becoming anorexic. If a family member has suffered from anorexia, then a person has a higher likelihood of developing it themselves.
Furthermore, during times of stress, damaging family dynamics or periods of time when a person may be experiencing social, cultural and peer pressure, an individual is much more likely to have an onset of anorexia.
Moreover, women and teenagers are more susceptible to developing eating disorders, which is why it is estimated that the average age in which people start to suffer from anorexia is from 16 to 17 years old. However, it is not time or gender restricted. Anyone can be affected, at any age.
Anorexia is also not limited to certain countries or cultures.
(In animation show list of ‘Countries with the highest rates of eating disorders: China, India, the United States, Indonesia, Austria and France.)
Anyone can be affected by this psychological disorder. If you or anyone you know is affected by this, remember that there are always resources available, and people willing to provide support. If you do need help, want to find out how you can help others affected or simply want to learn more about what anorexia is, there are numerous websites such as https://www.b-eat.co.uk/ https://www.eatingdisorderhope.com http://www.anad.org

Learn some eating disorder facts and statistics.
Eating disorders may be more prevalent than you realize. In fact, the latest statistics indicate that more than 30 million people in the U.S. will suffer from an eating disorder, with 10 million of those being men.
Following are other facts about eating disorders:
13% of women over the age of 50 have symptoms of an eating disorder.
Children under 12 admitted to the hospital for eating disorders rose 119% in less than a decade.
Eating disorders have the highest mortality rate of any mental illness, with nearly 1 person dying every hour as a direct result of their eating disorder.
Sufferers aren’t always underweight; about 35% of binge eating disorder and 30% of bulimia patients are medically obese.
Anorexia is the 3rd most common chronic illness among adolescents, after asthma and obesity.
Over 70% of sufferers will not seek treatment due to stigma, misconceptions, lack of education, diagnosis and lack of access to care.

SKIP AHEAD:
0:22 – Intro to Eating Disorders
1:38 – Bulimia Nervosa & Binge Eating Disorder
2:49 – Anorexia Nervosa
Eating Disorders are a collection of psychiatric conditions that involve abnormal eating habits associated with physical and/or psychological problems. There are many causes of abnormal eating habits, but if the situation is better explained by another medical problem it is not classified as an eating disorder. For example, a depressed patient who loses their appetite has an abnormal level of food intake, but does not have an eating disorder. Our discussion will focus on Anorexia Nervosa and Bulimia Nervosa which have many similarities. In both cases patients are preoccupied with food, their physical appearance and how much they weigh. They may have low self-esteem due to their distorted self-image. These disorders are significantly more common in young females. The treatment for both disorders primarily focuses on SSRI antidepressants and various types of therapy.
There is a significant amount of overlap between the presentation of Bulimia and Anorexia Nervosa. The key distinguishing factor is the patient’s body mass index (BMI), which is very low in Anorexia Nervosa and normal to mildly elevated in Bulimia Nervosa. Despite popular belief, you cannot use the presence of purging activities alone to distinguish the 2 disorders. Patients with AN can use things like laxatives and intentional vomiting just like Bulimia.
Bulimia Nervosa = Periods of overeating (AKA binging) followed by compensatory activities (AKA purging) such as intentional vomiting, excessive exercising or inappropriate laxatives use. Patients feel as if they lose control during periods of binge eating. BMI is within normal ranges or slightly high (greater than 20). Those that vomit may have alkalosis (due to loss of stomach acid), enlarged parotid glands, losses of enamel on teeth, or esophageal pathology. Those that use laxatives frequently may have acidosis due to the loss of bicarb. Although this warning is debated by some, current guidelines suggest not using Bupropion, an antidepressant, in Bulimic patients as they may have an increased risk for seizures as a side effect.
Binge Eating Disorder was recently added the DSM so it is unlikely to show up on Step 1. It has similar binging behavior to Bulimia, but there is no purging and the patients don’t necessarily have body image issues.
Anorexia Nervosa = eating very little and/or purging as a result of a distorted body image. These patients may feel like they are overweight even if they are very thin. They have low BMIs, less than17, and significant weight loss. Severe cases require hospitalization to correct starvation and the metabolic consequences. When a female’s body fat percentage gets very low the pulsatile release of GnRH from the hypothalamus stops and causes Amenorrhea. It’s like the endocrine system is saying “I can’t have a baby right now. I’m not even getting enough food for just me right now.” Chronic Anorexia Nervosa can lead to osteoporosis due to the low levels of estrogen. Can look similar to hypothyroidism with fatigue and changes to skin/hair, but the key difference is hypothyroidism has weight gain.
* The term anorexia is used often in Step 1 to describe weight loss and a lack of appetite, but that is different than anorexia nervosa which is sometimes abbreviated as anorexia. Anorexia can be used to explain a symptom of any disease/illness or a side effect of a treatment. It is not psychological in origin. In fact patients with Anorexia Nervosa do not have Anorexia, because they usually still have an appetite and feel hungry. The presence of an appetite can be used to differentiate Anorexia Nervosa from things like depression.

Thursday FAQVideo #KatiFAQ
1. HI Kati!I love your videos!They are very helpful and you are so nice and non-judgmental!!
I wanted to ask Is it possible that I “made up” my eating disorder? I had some struggles some years ago because I started restricting my food- but for me it was totally ok, like a sort of “diet”-.I don’t have a clue why I started this “diet” because I was already underweight but it felt right at that time. The behavior was similar to anorexia (restriction , exercising but not “so much as other people, not so obsessively”, some days I could even “don’t care” about that, weighing myself on different scales everyday..I was obsessed with numbers) but when I compare to others with EDs I never feel the same and this confuses me. The fact it only (the behavior) lasted for some months/a year- when I started to talk about it with my therapist it all went away- makes me think it was just a phase and it wasn’t a real problem, even though i kept thinking about it for years. I haven’t been diagnosed with anything and my therapist just said “it was a problem” but later didn’t asked me about my eating habits or my weight and just asked about other things..
I’ve never being encouraged to change my eating habits or sent to an hospital or centre/clinic.
Am I exaggerating it to get attention? (in fact I’m pretty obsessed with anorexic body shape and bones) I cannot relate with ED sufferers who had been in hospitals where they force you to eat or in therapies specialised for EDs and are weight monitored.
I Heard so many times saying “It’s painful to have an ED. You cannot want to have one” but I feel like when I was restricting I felt good because my only thought was food and I could stop when I wanted to.
I feel like this impacted my life so much but I’m now wondering If it was all in my mind and I took too it seriously.
I’m not looking for an online diagnosis but my question is “Can a person just “imitate” an eating disorder behaviour and confuse it with an ED?
Thank you so much for your help.
2. Hi Kati! You and your videos are amazing and have helped me so much-so thank you!! I’ve recently been talking to my school counselor about my eating disorder/depression and many of the other issues I have been facing. She assured me that all of the information I share with her is confidential, but I have recently discovered that she has been sharing the information I have told her with my coaches, other teachers at my school, as well as calling my friends into her office to get information about me. How do I bring this up with her and how will I be assured that I can have helpful and meaningful conversations without worrying about confidentiality?

ARE U OK? http://geni.us/sva4iUY
In order to meet the criteria for binge eating disorder, someone must have recurrent episodes of binge eating. The DSM defines binge eating as 1. Eating in short amount of time an amount of food that is definitely larger than what most people would eat in a similar amount of time and circumstance. 2. A sense of lack of control over eating during the episode.
Then the binge eating episodes are associated with 3 or more of the following:
Eating much more rapidly than normal
Eating until uncomfortably full
Eating large amounts of food when not feeling physically hungry
Eating alone because of feeling embarrassed by how much one is eating
Feeling disgusted with oneself, depressed, or very guilty afterward.
We must also have been distressed about our binge eating, and it must occur at least once a week for 3 months, and the binge eating is not associated with inappropriate compensatory behavior as in bulimia nervosa.
Let’s talk about the cause: Obviously, they don’t know for sure what causes BED, but they do know that there is a genetic component to all EDs, and if someone in our family has had an ED we are 46-72% more likely to have one as well. In my experience, trauma in our past (abuse, frightening event, etc) can lead to unhealthy coping skills such as an ED. I also find that patients of mine who were placed into a body focused activity at a young age are more likely as well. I offer up those triggers or causes because many of my patients have said that they overeat as a way to numb out from a painful memory, or have been overeating as a way to make themselves unattractive (usually as a result of sexual abuse). Or there was so much pressure on them as children to look a certain way that they always felt out of control with food, and once they could make their own choices, they found themselves binging frequently. Also, many people will feel like they are eating to fill a void, and that could be an emotional void that was left by an emotionally absent parent.
Be patient. It’s a process, not perfection. You didn’t develop BED overnight so it won’t go away quickly either. And yes when we are doing the hard work on therapy where we are focusing on the true cause of our ED it can get worse at first, but just work at it often, and trust me, it can get better!

Hi guys. This is the most personal video I have ever filmed & uploaded on my YouTube channel. I was really afraid to share this part of my life with you guys because topics like these are often seen as taboo or have some sort of stigma attached to them. However the reality of it is that many of us suffer with these kinds of issues and the less we talk about them the more problematic they become. So I made this video in an effort to help those of you out there who are possibly going through the same thing and show you that you are not alone. I hope it helps somebody and I hope you'll be kind to yourselves as well as others.
P.S.Something that I didn't get to touch on in this video was fitness. I never worked out or exercised during my darkest times of bulimia because I was afraid of gaining weight a.k.a muscle mass (how stupid is that?? Only after did I realise how ridiculous that is!). Around three months into my recovery I started working with a trainer (Lucy) and I feel like getting fitter and stronger for the right reasons really aided my recovery a lot. So fitness can be a huge help, however always consult your doctor or therapist before starting any kind of exercise because it might not be appropriate for your specific eating disorder recovery. In fact in some cases, it's not advisable at all especially if you have used exercise as a part of your eating disorder (something which I never did, for me it was the opposite). However on the whole, I think that moving your body and being active is amazing for your mental health. And much, much healthier than cutting calories or trying to go on any stupid diet.

Why is EDNOS the most deadly eating disorder?? #KatiFAQ
via YouTube Capture
1. #Katifaq Is it bad to keep sh tools around because they make you feel comfortable? Like a security blanket. You have no intention of using them you just feel better when they're around.
2. Hi Kati! This sounds a bit stupid but im wondering if you can help me with this. I think i became depressed 10 years ago, (more certainly the last 8) with very little break from it. The last year ive been working on trying to improve this with work, socializing, hobbies etc. Its been very challenging but helpful. The prob is i still feel down, alone, lost, stupid most of the time, or like im keeping my head just above water (something just doesnt feel right) like the world feels empty sort of, the best way to explain it is that i wake up and the last thing i want to do is get up and drag myself through the day, but its improved so much on wishing i was dead almost constantly etc. My question is if we have been depressed for a long time how do we know what is normal? i dont know if ive just lost touch with reality or expect too much or something from life... i dont have a therapist and cant get one.
3. #katiFAQ I have an assignment for my wellness class (the class is about the overall health of our body and mind, it is required course to take for the college i attend) for the assignment we need to keep track of everything we eat and drink. We have to use this website to fill in all of our data. The website also counts or calories. Im sort of freaking out because this is really triggering, i already have the feeling that I should restrict my eating and this is making everything worse. I don't know what to do. Any suggestions?
4. Why is EDNOS statistically the most deadly of eating disorders?
JournalTopic
Thought this would be a good journal topic / challenge.
Reality TV has become a longer running trend than many experts predicted. Who would think that people would rather become so immersed in the drama of other people, when they have their own lives to lead? It's a sad fact that we have, as a society, become so preoccupied with sensationalism and the dirty laundry of other people that we have stopped really living our own lives. While social media may have a lot to do with it, it is also a personal choice. Try to avoid the excitement or sadness or gossip that is so easy to become entwined in, and start pursuing something you've been thinking about that will be more personally rewarding

6 Causes of Eating Disorders
1. Chemical
Many medical professionals, including scientists and physicians, who study eating disorders believe the problem can be tied to biochemical disorders in the brain. Specifically, it’s possible that an imbalance of certain chemicals in the brain can cause one to feel hungry more or less than they should, drastically increasing their chances of having an unhealthy relationship with food.
Sometimes these chemical imbalances in the brain can be remedied through the use of medications, but this is effective only some of the time. The use of medication in addition to regularly meeting with a support professional — such as a social worker, physician, or psychiatrist — can provide the help one requires to overcome their chemical imbalance and lead a more healthy life.
2. Genetic
One can do everything in their power to lead a healthy life — they can eat well, exercise, visit their doctor regularly, and make an effort to achieve a state of overall mental and physical well-being. But even the healthiest person can find their health affected by a genetic predisposition to a medical condition, from cancer to heart disease and even eating disorders.
In short, if your ancestors or members of your immediate family struggled with weight problems — whether that involves being excessively heavy or thin — you may encounter these same issues at some point in your life. In any case, it pays to be prepared for the challenges you may face, so be sure to ask your loved ones about some of the health conditions your family members have faced in the past.
3. Psychological
Individuals who find themselves in particularly stressful or depressing circumstances may be more likely to develop an eating disorder. This is particularly likely among individuals who have felt especially stressed or depressed for long periods of time, as it could lead them to use food as a way to relieve stress and alleviate persistent feelings of depression.
Other emotions that can contribute to the emergence of eating disorders include general feelings of low self-esteem; feelings of inadequacy (perhaps as the result of being in an abusive relationship with a partner, family members, or a group of friends); feeling that one lacks any control in their lives; and feeling as though they lacking a reliable social network.
4. Social
One’s social network and the nature of their everyday relationships can have a huge impact on their attitude towards food. Say, for example, that an individual spends a lot of time with people who worry about eating and their weight: there’s a good chance that anyone in that group of people will absorb that general outlook. Of course, the same could be said of an individual who spends much of their time in a social group where eating healthy and getting exercise is considered unnecessary.
Because it can often be hard to look beyond one’s own social group, it can require the support of medical professionals, like a family doctor, social worker, or psychiatrist, to help an individual recognize how their social group is affecting their attitudes towards food and increasing their chances of succumbing to an eating disorder.
5. Cultural
When it comes to determining the causes of an eating disorder, perhaps the most difficult factor to reckon with involves the culture surrounding the affected individual. This is because, unlike a social group, it’s virtually impossible to take someone with an eating disorder out of their culture in order to help treat them.
Put simply, cultural pressures can lead to eating disorders by repeatedly emphasizing the importance of having a thin and toned body. For women, the emphasis is often on being thin, toned, and yet having ample breastss, hips, and but. While men generally face less pressure to be thin, there’s a growing connection between masculinity and muscularity that leads many men to obsess over their bodies. For those who have developed eating disorders largely because of these cultural pressures, it’s crucial that those around them emphasize the fact that there is no such thing as a “perfect body.”
6. Interpersonal
This factor in causing eating disorders is similar to social network but often involves just one or two people. In this case, a trouble love life — such as having a partner who repeatedly shames his or her partner into feeling too thin or fatt — can have devastating consequences for the affected individual. Of course, this could be another type of major interpersonal relationship, such as the link between a mother and child.

The cause of eating disorders is not clear. Both genetic and environmental factors appear to play a role. Cultural idealization of thinness is believed to contribute. Eating disorders for example affect about 12% of dancers. Those who have experienced sexual abuse are also more likely to develop eating disorders. Some disorders such as pica and rumination disorder occur more often in people with intellectual disabilities. Only one eating disorder can be diagnosed at a given time.

Anorexia nervosa

Anorexia nervosa, often referred to simply as anorexia, is an eating disorder characterized by a low weight, fear of gaining weight, a strong desire to be thin, and food restriction. Many people with anorexia see themselves as overweight even though they are underweight. If asked they usually deny they have a problem with low weight. Often they weigh themselves frequently, eat only small amounts, and only eat certain foods. Some will exercise excessively, force themselves to vomit, or use laxatives to produce weight loss. Complications may include osteoporosis, infertility and heart damage, among others. Women will often stop having menstrual periods.

The cause is not known. There appear to be some genetic components with identical twins more often affected than non-identical twins. Cultural factors also appear to play a role with societies that value thinness having higher rates of disease. Additionally, it occurs more commonly among those involved in activities that value thinness such as high level athletics, modelling, and dancing. Anorexia often begins following a major life change or stress inducing event. The diagnosis requires a significantly low weight. The severity of disease is based on body mass index (BMI) in adults with mild disease having a BMI of greater than 17, moderate a BMI of 16 to 17, severe a BMI of 15 to 16, and extreme a BMI less than 15. In children a BMI for age percentile of less than the 5th percentile is often used.

Anorexia Nervosa (band)

Anorexia Nervosa is a French symphonic black metal band that started as an industrial metal act from Limoges, France. The band was formed in 1995 and was active for ten years thereafter. They are currently "on hold" due to the departure of vocalist RMS Hreidmarr.

Biography

Anorexia Nervosa (full name Anorexia Nervosa the Nihilistic Orchestra) was formed in 1995 from the ashes of a death metal band called Necromancia whose line-up consisted of Stéphane Bayle (guitar), Marc Zabé (guitar), Pierre Couquet (bass), Nilcas Vant (drums) and Stéphane Gerbaud (vocals). As Necromancia they produced a demo in 1993, Garden of Delight. At that time, the band was playing industrial death metal with elements of gothic rock which gave it ambience. A second demo, Nihil Negativum, gave Anorexia Nervosa its place in the underground world. The demo featured the dark, industrial atmosphere that their album Exile was later known for. During a concert in the south of France, Michael Berberian, from Season of Mist Records, noticed the band and offered them a contract for an album. Exile, was released in 1997. Reminiscent of their previous work, Nihil Negativum, Exile had an eerily industrial sound to it, and often switched between fast tempos and thrashing guitars back to a slow, ambient style consisting of only a "white noise" – like sound lightly draped over grim vocals. Not only was the album unique in the history of the band, but in the entire black metal genre itself. Being a concept album, Exile based itself on themes of neurosis and experimentation on madness. Twenty-four hundred copies of the album were sold, allowing access to a larger audience and onto a series of concerts with Cradle of Filth, Absu, Misanthrope, amongst others.

Eating

Eating (also known as consuming) is the ingestion of food, typically to provide a heterotrophic organism with energy and to allow for growth. Animals and other heterotrophs must eat in order to survive — carnivores eat other animals, herbivores eat plants, omnivores consume a mixture of both plant and animal matter, and detritivores eat detritus. Fungi digest organic matter outside of their bodies as opposed to animals that digest their food inside their bodies. For humans, eating is an activity of daily living. Some individuals may limit their amount of nutritional intake. This may be a result of a lifestyle choice, due to hunger or famine, as part of a diet or as religious fasting.

Eating practices among humans

Many homes have a large eating room or outside (in the tropics) kitchen area devoted to preparation of meals and food, and may have a dining room, dining hall, or another designated area for eating. Some trains have a dining car. Dishware, silverware, drinkware, and cookware come in a wide array of forms and sizes. Most societies also have restaurants, food courts, and/or food vendors, so that people may eat when away from home, when lacking time to prepare food, or as a social occasion (dining club). At their highest level of sophistication, these places become "theatrical spectacles of global cosmopolitanism and myth." At picnics, potlucks, and food festivals, eating is in fact the primary purpose of a social gathering. At many social events, food and beverages are made available to attendees.

Competitive eating

Competitive eating, or speed eating, is a sport in which participants compete against each other to consume large quantities of food in a short time period. Contests are typically eight to ten minutes long, although some competitions can last up to thirty minutes, with the person consuming the most food being declared the winner. Competitive eating is most popular in the United States, Canada, and Japan, where organized professional eating contests often offer prizes, including cash.

History

Traditionally, eating contests, often involving pies, were events at county fairs. The recent surge in the popularity of competitive eating is due in large part to the development of the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest, an annual holiday tradition that has been held on July 4 virtually every year since the 1970s at Coney Island. In 2001, Takeru Kobayashi transformed the competition and the world of competitive eating by downing 50 hot dogs – smashing the previous record (25.5). The event generates enormous media attention and has been aired on ESPN for the past eight years, contributing to the growth of the competitive eating phenomenon. Takeru Kobayashi won it consistently from 2001 through 2006. He was dethroned in 2007 by Joey Chestnut. In 2008, Chestnut and Kobayashi tied at 59 hot dogs in 10 minutes (the time span had previously been 12 minutes), and Chestnut won in an eatoff in which he was the first of the two competitors to finish eating 5 hot dogs in overtime, earning Chestnut his second consecutive title. Chestnut holds the world record of 69 hot dogs and buns in 10 minutes. Kobayashi holds six Guinness Records, for eating hot dogs, meatballs, Twinkies, hamburgers, and pizza. He competed in hot dog contests in 2011 and 2012 and claimed to have eaten 68 and 69. Kobayashi goes on to say that he completed this by drinking lots and lots of liquid for a few days before the event before not eating anything all day on the event.

Plot

Set entirely inside and around a spacious house in Los Angeles with an all-female cast, Helene is a woman turning 40 years old and her friends, whom include French filmmaker Martine, house guest Sophie, and Lydia throw her a party. But also there is Kate, a friend turning 30, and Sadie, a Hollywood film agent turning 50. So, all of Helene's, Kate's, and Sadie's friends arrive for the triple-birthday party where Martine films the events with her movie camera and the shocking secrets revealed by Helene's mother Whitney, and her younger sister Nancy whom confide in their interviews about their obsession with food, and their roles in life.

Binge eating disorder

Binge eating disorder (BED) is characterized by binge eating without subsequent purging episodes. The disorder was first described in 1959 by psychiatrist and researcher Albert Stunkard as "night eating syndrome" (NES), and the term "binge eating " was coined to describe the same binging-type eating behavior without the exclusive nocturnal component. Binge eating is one of the most prevalent eating disorders among adults, though there tends to be less media coverage and research about the disorder in comparison to anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa. Previously considered a topic for further research exploration, binge eating disorder was included in the eating disorders section of the DSM-5 in 2013.

BED is present in 0.8% of male U.S. adults and 1.6% of female U.S. adults in a given year.

Signs and symptoms

The following are DSM-5 criteria that must be present to make a diagnosis of binge eating disorder. Studies have confirmed the high predictive value of these criteria for diagnosing BED.
"A. Recurrent episodes of binge eating. An episode of binge eating is characterized by both of the following:

ARE U OK? http://geni.us/sva4iUY
Eating disorders can be scary and at times feel completely out of control. TodayI am offering up 7 facts about anorexia and why it's so important that we get help as soon as we can. I know recovery from an eating disorder is difficult, but know that you are not alone and you can get through it!
1. Bad breath. This actually has nothing to do with our dental hygiene, it really happens because we aren't giving it enough nutrients and our body is eating itself to survive. The bad breath that comes with EDs is very different from regular bad breath, and the only way to make it go away is by nourishing our bodies.
2. Heart problems. When we don't give our body enough food and nutrients it begins to eat other parts to keep us alive. One of the things it will break down is muscle. Since our heart is a muscle, this can weaken it and lead to heart attacks. I have seen this when I worked in inpatient eating disorder treatment centers. Please be careful and go get a check up asap!
3. Osteopenia & osteoporosis. Just like I stated before, when we don't give our body enough food and energy it will begin eating away at our muscles and our bones. It will leech the calcium from our bones to keep us alive. This can lead to the breaking down of our bone density, but if we catch it early enough we can usually repair it!
4. Skin and hair issues. Firstly our hair will fall out because it's honestly seen as an extra in many ways. We don't need it to survive, therefore our body will stop producing it as it looks for ways to save energy. Also, our skin can sag and age rapidly. Our skin needs fat, water and many different types of nutrients to look supple and smooth. If we are starving our body our skin will look starved too.
5. Cognitive functioning. If we are starving ourselves, we cannot focus or remember things properly. Our brain needs a lot of energy to function! Especially fats and proteins. If we aren't giving that to our body, it can't do all that we need it to and we may forget things, not be able to concentrate at work or school and we will struggle to keep up with our work.
6. Anorexia doesn't discriminate. It doesn't care who you are, what age, race or gender we are. Eating disorders are a coping skill and they can happen to anyone.
7. Recovery is possible!! With the proper help and support we can over come our nasty ED!!! Trust me, I have seen it happen for so many others and I know it can happen for you.
Please share this video! You never know who could be struggling or who may know someone else who is. xox

Anorexia and Eating Disorders | Biology for All | FuseSchool

In this video we are going to cover eating disorders, and in particular, anorexia.
You may not be aware of this, but four out of 10 people have either personally experienced an eating disorder or know somebody who has. So what exactly is an eating disorder, you may ask?
An eating disorder is a psychological disorder, so mental disorder, that causes somebody to adopt an unnatural attitude and approach towards food and their way of eating. The individual usually then develops an obsession about their weight and body shape, which in turn causes them to hurt their health as they make unhealthy choices about food.
Even though there are many eating disorders, anorexia is probably the most well known.
Actually called Anorexia Nervosa, but usually referred to as simply Anorexia, it is an intense fear of being fat that leads to restrictions in both the amount and / or the type of food that the person consumes. This particular eating disorder usually entails that the person is unable to see the reality of their body shape and situation, and sees their self worth as being heavily linked to their body image.
Eating disorders and anorexia may not seem too serious and you may be thinking that not a lot of harm can come out of this. However, anorexia is the psychiatric disorder that causes the most amount of deaths and in fact, every 62 minutes one person dies as a direct result from an eating disorder[3]. Death is usually caused either by suicide, or as a result of organ failure, typically the heart, as the body lacks vital nutrients.
So, who can get it?
Anyone can develop anorexia, but it is not, however, entirely clear why some people are more susceptible to it than others.
There are, however, a number of factors that make a person more prone to falling into it. There are certain personalities (such as perfectionists) and character traits that a person may have that can increase their chances of becoming anorexic. If a family member has suffered from anorexia, then a person has a higher likelihood of developing it themselves.
Furthermore, during times of stress, damaging family dynamics or periods of time when a person may be experiencing social, cultural and peer pressure, an individual is much more likely to have an onset of anorexia.
Moreover, women and teenagers are more susceptible to developing eating disorders, which is why it is estimated that the average age in which people start to suffer from anorexia is from 16 to 17 years old. However, it is not time or gender restricted. Anyone can be affected, at any age.
Anorexia is also not limited to certain countries or cultures.
(In animation show list of ‘Countries with the highest rates of eating disorders: China, India, the United States, Indonesia, Austria and France.)
Anyone can be affected by this psychological disorder. If you or anyone you know is affected by this, remember that there are always resources available, and people willing to provide support. If you do need help, want to find out how you can help others affected or simply want to learn more about what anorexia is, there are numerous websites such as https://www.b-eat.co.uk/ https://www.eatingdisorderhope.com http://www.anad.org

Eating Disorders: Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia & Binge Eating Disorder

Eating Disorders: Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia & Binge Eating Disorder

Eating Disorders: Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia & Binge Eating Disorder

SKIP AHEAD:
0:22 – Intro to Eating Disorders
1:38 – Bulimia Nervosa & Binge Eating Disorder
2:49 – Anorexia Nervosa
Eating Disorders are a collection of psychiatric conditions that involve abnormal eating habits associated with physical and/or psychological problems. There are many causes of abnormal eating habits, but if the situation is better explained by another medical problem it is not classified as an eating disorder. For example, a depressed patient who loses their appetite has an abnormal level of food intake, but does not have an eating disorder. Our discussion will focus on Anorexia Nervosa and Bulimia Nervosa which have many similarities. In both cases patients are preoccupied with food, their physical appearance and how much they weigh. They may have low self-esteem due to their distorted self-image. These disorders are significantly more common in young females. The treatment for both disorders primarily focuses on SSRI antidepressants and various types of therapy.
There is a significant amount of overlap between the presentation of Bulimia and Anorexia Nervosa. The key distinguishing factor is the patient’s body mass index (BMI), which is very low in Anorexia Nervosa and normal to mildly elevated in Bulimia Nervosa. Despite popular belief, you cannot use the presence of purging activities alone to distinguish the 2 disorders. Patients with AN can use things like laxatives and intentional vomiting just like Bulimia.
Bulimia Nervosa = Periods of overeating (AKA binging) followed by compensatory activities (AKA purging) such as intentional vomiting, excessive exercising or inappropriate laxatives use. Patients feel as if they lose control during periods of binge eating. BMI is within normal ranges or slightly high (greater than 20). Those that vomit may have alkalosis (due to loss of stomach acid), enlarged parotid glands, losses of enamel on teeth, or esophageal pathology. Those that use laxatives frequently may have acidosis due to the loss of bicarb. Although this warning is debated by some, current guidelines suggest not using Bupropion, an antidepressant, in Bulimic patients as they may have an increased risk for seizures as a side effect.
Binge Eating Disorder was recently added the DSM so it is unlikely to show up on Step 1. It has similar binging behavior to Bulimia, but there is no purging and the patients don’t necessarily have body image issues.
Anorexia Nervosa = eating very little and/or purging as a result of a distorted body image. These patients may feel like they are overweight even if they are very thin. They have low BMIs, less than17, and significant weight loss. Severe cases require hospitalization to correct starvation and the metabolic consequences. When a female’s body fat percentage gets very low the pulsatile release of GnRH from the hypothalamus stops and causes Amenorrhea. It’s like the endocrine system is saying “I can’t have a baby right now. I’m not even getting enough food for just me right now.” Chronic Anorexia Nervosa can lead to osteoporosis due to the low levels of estrogen. Can look similar to hypothyroidism with fatigue and changes to skin/hair, but the key difference is hypothyroidism has weight gain.
* The term anorexia is used often in Step 1 to describe weight loss and a lack of appetite, but that is different than anorexia nervosa which is sometimes abbreviated as anorexia. Anorexia can be used to explain a symptom of any disease/illness or a side effect of a treatment. It is not psychological in origin. In fact patients with Anorexia Nervosa do not have Anorexia, because they usually still have an appetite and feel hungry. The presence of an appetite can be used to differentiate Anorexia Nervosa from things like depression.

Thursday FAQVideo #KatiFAQ
1. HI Kati!I love your videos!They are very helpful and you are so nice and non-judgmental!!
I wanted to ask Is it possible that I “made up” my eating disorder? I had some struggles some years ago because I started restricting my food- but for me it was totally ok, like a sort of “diet”-.I don’t have a clue why I started this “diet” because I was already underweight but it felt right at that time. The behavior was similar to anorexia (restriction , exercising but not “so much as other people, not so obsessively”, some days I could even “don’t care” about that, weighing myself on different scales everyday..I was obsessed with numbers) but when I compare to others with EDs I never feel the same and this confuses me. The fact it only (the behavior) lasted for some months/a year- when I started to talk about it with my therapist it all went away- makes me think it was just a phase and it wasn’t a real problem, even though i kept thinking about it for years. I haven’t been diagnosed with anything and my therapist just said “it was a problem” but later didn’t asked me about my eating habits or my weight and just asked about other things..
I’ve never being encouraged to change my eating habits or sent to an hospital or centre/clinic.
Am I exaggerating it to get attention? (in fact I’m pretty obsessed with anorexic body shape and bones) I cannot relate with ED sufferers who had been in hospitals where they force you to eat or in therapies specialised for EDs and are weight monitored.
I Heard so many times saying “It’s painful to have an ED. You cannot want to have one” but I feel like when I was restricting I felt good because my only thought was food and I could stop when I wanted to.
I feel like this impacted my life so much but I’m now wondering If it was all in my mind and I took too it seriously.
I’m not looking for an online diagnosis but my question is “Can a person just “imitate” an eating disorder behaviour and confuse it with an ED?
Thank you so much for your help.
2. Hi Kati! You and your videos are amazing and have helped me so much-so thank you!! I’ve recently been talking to my school counselor about my eating disorder/depression and many of the other issues I have been facing. She assured me that all of the information I share with her is confidential, but I have recently discovered that she has been sharing the information I have told her with my coaches, other teachers at my school, as well as calling my friends into her office to get information about me. How do I bring this up with her and how will I be assured that I can have helpful and meaningful conversations without worrying about confidentiality?

ARE U OK? http://geni.us/sva4iUY
In order to meet the criteria for binge eating disorder, someone must have recurrent episodes of binge eating. The DSM defines binge eating as 1. Eating in short amount of time an amount of food that is definitely larger than what most people would eat in a similar amount of time and circumstance. 2. A sense of lack of control over eating during the episode.
Then the binge eating episodes are associated with 3 or more of the following:
Eating much more rapidly than normal
Eating until uncomfortably full
Eating large amounts of food when not feeling physically hungry
Eating alone because of feeling embarrassed by how much one is eating
Feeling disgusted with oneself, depressed, or very guilty afterward.
We must also have been distressed about our binge eating, and it must occur at least once a week for 3 months, and the binge eating is not associated with inappropriate compensatory behavior as in bulimia nervosa.
Let’s talk about the cause: Obviously, they don’t know for sure what causes BED, but they do know that there is a genetic component to all EDs, and if someone in our family has had an ED we are 46-72% more likely to have one as well. In my experience, trauma in our past (abuse, frightening event, etc) can lead to unhealthy coping skills such as an ED. I also find that patients of mine who were placed into a body focused activity at a young age are more likely as well. I offer up those triggers or causes because many of my patients have said that they overeat as a way to numb out from a painful memory, or have been overeating as a way to make themselves unattractive (usually as a result of sexual abuse). Or there was so much pressure on them as children to look a certain way that they always felt out of control with food, and once they could make their own choices, they found themselves binging frequently. Also, many people will feel like they are eating to fill a void, and that could be an emotional void that was left by an emotionally absent parent.
Be patient. It’s a process, not perfection. You didn’t develop BED overnight so it won’t go away quickly either. And yes when we are doing the hard work on therapy where we are focusing on the true cause of our ED it can get worse at first, but just work at it often, and trust me, it can get better!

Why I Quit YouTube: Eating Disorder, Body Shaming

Why I Quit YouTube: Eating Disorder, Body Shaming

Why I Quit YouTube: Eating Disorder, Body Shaming

Hi guys. This is the most personal video I have ever filmed & uploaded on my YouTube channel. I was really afraid to share this part of my life with you guys because topics like these are often seen as taboo or have some sort of stigma attached to them. However the reality of it is that many of us suffer with these kinds of issues and the less we talk about them the more problematic they become. So I made this video in an effort to help those of you out there who are possibly going through the same thing and show you that you are not alone. I hope it helps somebody and I hope you'll be kind to yourselves as well as others.
P.S.Something that I didn't get to touch on in this video was fitness. I never worked out or exercised during my darkest times of bulimia because I was afraid of gaining weight a.k.a muscle mass (how stupid is that?? Only after did I realise how ridiculous that is!). Around three months into my recovery I started working with a trainer (Lucy) and I feel like getting fitter and stronger for the right reasons really aided my recovery a lot. So fitness can be a huge help, however always consult your doctor or therapist before starting any kind of exercise because it might not be appropriate for your specific eating disorder recovery. In fact in some cases, it's not advisable at all especially if you have used exercise as a part of your eating disorder (something which I never did, for me it was the opposite). However on the whole, I think that moving your body and being active is amazing for your mental health. And much, much healthier than cutting calories or trying to go on any stupid diet.

Why is EDNOS the most deadly eating disorder?? #KatiFAQ
via YouTube Capture
1. #Katifaq Is it bad to keep sh tools around because they make you feel comfortable? Like a security blanket. You have no intention of using them you just feel better when they're around.
2. Hi Kati! This sounds a bit stupid but im wondering if you can help me with this. I think i became depressed 10 years ago, (more certainly the last 8) with very little break from it. The last year ive been working on trying to improve this with work, socializing, hobbies etc. Its been very challenging but helpful. The prob is i still feel down, alone, lost, stupid most of the time, or like im keeping my head just above water (something just doesnt feel right) like the world feels empty sort of, the best way to explain it is that i wake up and the last thing i want to do is get up and drag myself through the day, but its improved so much on wishing i was dead almost constantly etc. My question is if we have been depressed for a long time how do we know what is normal? i dont know if ive just lost touch with reality or expect too much or something from life... i dont have a therapist and cant get one.
3. #katiFAQ I have an assignment for my wellness class (the class is about the overall health of our body and mind, it is required course to take for the college i attend) for the assignment we need to keep track of everything we eat and drink. We have to use this website to fill in all of our data. The website also counts or calories. Im sort of freaking out because this is really triggering, i already have the feeling that I should restrict my eating and this is making everything worse. I don't know what to do. Any suggestions?
4. Why is EDNOS statistically the most deadly of eating disorders?
JournalTopic
Thought this would be a good journal topic / challenge.
Reality TV has become a longer running trend than many experts predicted. Who would think that people would rather become so immersed in the drama of other people, when they have their own lives to lead? It's a sad fact that we have, as a society, become so preoccupied with sensationalism and the dirty laundry of other people that we have stopped really living our own lives. While social media may have a lot to do with it, it is also a personal choice. Try to avoid the excitement or sadness or gossip that is so easy to become entwined in, and start pursuing something you've been thinking about that will be more personally rewarding

6 Causes of Eating Disorders
1. Chemical
Many medical professionals, including scientists and physicians, who study eating disorders believe the problem can be tied to biochemical disorders in the brain. Specifically, it’s possible that an imbalance of certain chemicals in the brain can cause one to feel hungry more or less than they should, drastically increasing their chances of having an unhealthy relationship with food.
Sometimes these chemical imbalances in the brain can be remedied through the use of medications, but this is effective only some of the time. The use of medication in addition to regularly meeting with a support professional — such as a social worker, physician, or psychiatrist — can provide the help one requires to overcome their chemical imbalance and lead a more healthy life.
2. Genetic
One can do everything in their power to lead a healthy life — they can eat well, exercise, visit their doctor regularly, and make an effort to achieve a state of overall mental and physical well-being. But even the healthiest person can find their health affected by a genetic predisposition to a medical condition, from cancer to heart disease and even eating disorders.
In short, if your ancestors or members of your immediate family struggled with weight problems — whether that involves being excessively heavy or thin — you may encounter these same issues at some point in your life. In any case, it pays to be prepared for the challenges you may face, so be sure to ask your loved ones about some of the health conditions your family members have faced in the past.
3. Psychological
Individuals who find themselves in particularly stressful or depressing circumstances may be more likely to develop an eating disorder. This is particularly likely among individuals who have felt especially stressed or depressed for long periods of time, as it could lead them to use food as a way to relieve stress and alleviate persistent feelings of depression.
Other emotions that can contribute to the emergence of eating disorders include general feelings of low self-esteem; feelings of inadequacy (perhaps as the result of being in an abusive relationship with a partner, family members, or a group of friends); feeling that one lacks any control in their lives; and feeling as though they lacking a reliable social network.
4. Social
One’s social network and the nature of their everyday relationships can have a huge impact on their attitude towards food. Say, for example, that an individual spends a lot of time with people who worry about eating and their weight: there’s a good chance that anyone in that group of people will absorb that general outlook. Of course, the same could be said of an individual who spends much of their time in a social group where eating healthy and getting exercise is considered unnecessary.
Because it can often be hard to look beyond one’s own social group, it can require the support of medical professionals, like a family doctor, social worker, or psychiatrist, to help an individual recognize how their social group is affecting their attitudes towards food and increasing their chances of succumbing to an eating disorder.
5. Cultural
When it comes to determining the causes of an eating disorder, perhaps the most difficult factor to reckon with involves the culture surrounding the affected individual. This is because, unlike a social group, it’s virtually impossible to take someone with an eating disorder out of their culture in order to help treat them.
Put simply, cultural pressures can lead to eating disorders by repeatedly emphasizing the importance of having a thin and toned body. For women, the emphasis is often on being thin, toned, and yet having ample breastss, hips, and but. While men generally face less pressure to be thin, there’s a growing connection between masculinity and muscularity that leads many men to obsess over their bodies. For those who have developed eating disorders largely because of these cultural pressures, it’s crucial that those around them emphasize the fact that there is no such thing as a “perfect body.”
6. Interpersonal
This factor in causing eating disorders is similar to social network but often involves just one or two people. In this case, a trouble love life — such as having a partner who repeatedly shames his or her partner into feeling too thin or fatt — can have devastating consequences for the affected individual. Of course, this could be another type of major interpersonal relationship, such as the link between a mother and child.

This video shows that many vegans, including popular vegans like Freelee, Sarah Lemkus, James Aspey and Hitomi Mochizuki actually suffer from eating disorders. They may claim that they are fully recoverd now but in fact they just switched from one eating disorder to another.

ARE U OK? http://geni.us/sva4iUY
Many of you have told me you struggle with bulimia. Many have asked if that is in fact what they are going through. Today I talk about seven (of many) need to know facts about bulimia. I hope this helps you better understand what you or someone you love it going through.
1. Damage to your vocal cords. I have had clients who sing for a living or even high school students who try out for the spring musical. Purging can damage your vocal cords making your singing voice come and go. It can even ruin your voice for good or cause polyps to form.
2. Damage to teeth. Stomach acid coming up over and over again slowly erodes your tooth enamel.
3. Swollen salivary glands. It can make our face look puffy and they can even be painful to the touch. The reason they swell is because we are forcing our salivary glands to be overactive.
4. Reproductive harm. If we aren't getting enough nutrients our body will slowly cut off things it doesn't need to survive. Reproduction isn't something we have to do, so it can slowly deteriorate.
5. Hair loss and skin sagging. Due to dehydration and malnutrition our hair can skin will be damaged. Hair can get extremely thin and skin can become saggy and wrinkly.
6. Bone density loss. Many people who are malnourished develop osteopenia or osteoporosis because when our body doesn't get enough protein or nutrients it starts taking it from other places; mainly our bones and muscles.
7. Esophageal tearing. The repetitive purging causes acid to linger in our throat way longer and more frequently than it should. This acid as well as the force of food pushing through can cause our esophagus to tear. If you see blood in your vomit, please go to the doctor asap! This can be very dangerous.
This video is in no way meant to scare you. Instead, it's a way to inform you of what could be happening to your body if you struggle with bulimia or any other purging based eating disorder. If you or someone you love is struggling with this, please get help! Share this video! You never know who it could help :) xoxo

1. Bad breath. This actually has nothing to do with our dental hygiene, it really happens because we aren't giving it enough nutrients and our body is eating itself to survive. The bad breath that comes with EDs is very different from regular bad breath, and the only way to make it go away is by nourishing our bodies.
2. Heart problems. When we don't give our body enough food and nutrients it begins to eat other parts to keep us alive. One of...

Anorexia and Eating Disorders | Biology for All | FuseSchool

In this video we are going to cover eating disorders, and in particular, anorexia.
You may not be aware of this, but four out of 10 people have either personally experienced an eating disorder or know somebody who has. So what exactly is an eating disorder, you may ask?
An eating disorder is a psychological disorder, so mental disorder, that causes somebody to adopt an unnatural attitude and approach towards food and their way of eating. The individual usually then develops an obsession about their weight and body shape, which in turn causes them to hurt their health as they make unhealthy choices about food.
Even though there are many eating disorders, anorexia is probably the most well known.
Actually called Anorexia Nervosa, but usually referred to as simply Anorexia, it is an inte...

There are many causes of abnormal eating habits, but if the situation is better explained by another medical problem it is not classified as an eating disorder. For example, a depressed patient who loses their appetite has an abnormal level of food intake, but does not have an eating disorder.

I had some struggles some years ago because I started restricting my food- but for me it was totally ok, like a sort of “diet”-.I don’t have a clue why I started this “diet” because I was already underweight but it felt right at that time. The behavior was similar to anorexia (restriction , exercising but not “so much as other people, not so obsessively”, some days I could even “don’t care” about that, weighing myself on different scales everyday..I was obsessed with numbers) but when I compare to others with EDs I never feel the same and this confus...

1. Damage to your vocal cords. I have had clients who sing for a living or even high school students who try out for the spring musical. Purging can damage your vocal cords making your singing voice come and go. It can even ruin your voice for good or cause polyps to form.
2. Damage to teeth. Stomach acid coming up over and over again slowly erodes your tooth enamel.
3. Swollen salivary glands. It can make our face look puffy and they can even be painful to the touc...

ARE U OK? http://geni.us/sva4iUY
Eating disorders can be scary and at times feel completely out of control. TodayI am offering up 7 facts about anorexia and why it's so important that we get help as soon as we can. I know recovery from an eating disorder is difficult, but know that you are not alone and you can get through it!
1. Bad breath. This actually has nothing to do with our dental hygiene, it really happens because we aren't giving it enough nutrients and our body is eating itself to survive. The bad breath that comes with EDs is very different from regular bad breath, and the only way to make it go away is by nourishing our bodies.
2. Heart problems. When we don't give our body enough food and nutrients it begins to eat other parts to keep us alive. One of the things it will break down is muscle. Since our heart is a muscle, this can weaken it and lead to heart attacks. I have seen this when I worked in inpatient eating disorder treatment centers. Please be careful and go get a check up asap!
3. Osteopenia & osteoporosis. Just like I stated before, when we don't give our body enough food and energy it will begin eating away at our muscles and our bones. It will leech the calcium from our bones to keep us alive. This can lead to the breaking down of our bone density, but if we catch it early enough we can usually repair it!
4. Skin and hair issues. Firstly our hair will fall out because it's honestly seen as an extra in many ways. We don't need it to survive, therefore our body will stop producing it as it looks for ways to save energy. Also, our skin can sag and age rapidly. Our skin needs fat, water and many different types of nutrients to look supple and smooth. If we are starving our body our skin will look starved too.
5. Cognitive functioning. If we are starving ourselves, we cannot focus or remember things properly. Our brain needs a lot of energy to function! Especially fats and proteins. If we aren't giving that to our body, it can't do all that we need it to and we may forget things, not be able to concentrate at work or school and we will struggle to keep up with our work.
6. Anorexia doesn't discriminate. It doesn't care who you are, what age, race or gender we are. Eating disorders are a coping skill and they can happen to anyone.
7. Recovery is possible!! With the proper help and support we can over come our nasty ED!!! Trust me, I have seen it happen for so many others and I know it can happen for you.
Please share this video! You never know who could be struggling or who may know someone else who is. xox

In this video we are going to cover eating disorders, and in particular, anorexia.
You may not be aware of this, but four out of 10 people have either personally experienced an eating disorder or know somebody who has. So what exactly is an eating disorder, you may ask?
An eating disorder is a psychological disorder, so mental disorder, that causes somebody to adopt an unnatural attitude and approach towards food and their way of eating. The individual usually then develops an obsession about their weight and body shape, which in turn causes them to hurt their health as they make unhealthy choices about food.
Even though there are many eating disorders, anorexia is probably the most well known.
Actually called Anorexia Nervosa, but usually referred to as simply Anorexia, it is an intense fear of being fat that leads to restrictions in both the amount and / or the type of food that the person consumes. This particular eating disorder usually entails that the person is unable to see the reality of their body shape and situation, and sees their self worth as being heavily linked to their body image.
Eating disorders and anorexia may not seem too serious and you may be thinking that not a lot of harm can come out of this. However, anorexia is the psychiatric disorder that causes the most amount of deaths and in fact, every 62 minutes one person dies as a direct result from an eating disorder[3]. Death is usually caused either by suicide, or as a result of organ failure, typically the heart, as the body lacks vital nutrients.
So, who can get it?
Anyone can develop anorexia, but it is not, however, entirely clear why some people are more susceptible to it than others.
There are, however, a number of factors that make a person more prone to falling into it. There are certain personalities (such as perfectionists) and character traits that a person may have that can increase their chances of becoming anorexic. If a family member has suffered from anorexia, then a person has a higher likelihood of developing it themselves.
Furthermore, during times of stress, damaging family dynamics or periods of time when a person may be experiencing social, cultural and peer pressure, an individual is much more likely to have an onset of anorexia.
Moreover, women and teenagers are more susceptible to developing eating disorders, which is why it is estimated that the average age in which people start to suffer from anorexia is from 16 to 17 years old. However, it is not time or gender restricted. Anyone can be affected, at any age.
Anorexia is also not limited to certain countries or cultures.
(In animation show list of ‘Countries with the highest rates of eating disorders: China, India, the United States, Indonesia, Austria and France.)
Anyone can be affected by this psychological disorder. If you or anyone you know is affected by this, remember that there are always resources available, and people willing to provide support. If you do need help, want to find out how you can help others affected or simply want to learn more about what anorexia is, there are numerous websites such as https://www.b-eat.co.uk/ https://www.eatingdisorderhope.com http://www.anad.org

Learn some eating disorder facts and statistics.
Eating disorders may be more prevalent than you realize. In fact, the latest statistics indicate that more than 30 million people in the U.S. will suffer from an eating disorder, with 10 million of those being men.
Following are other facts about eating disorders:
13% of women over the age of 50 have symptoms of an eating disorder.
Children under 12 admitted to the hospital for eating disorders rose 119% in less than a decade.
Eating disorders have the highest mortality rate of any mental illness, with nearly 1 person dying every hour as a direct result of their eating disorder.
Sufferers aren’t always underweight; about 35% of binge eating disorder and 30% of bulimia patients are medically obese.
Anorexia is the 3rd most common chronic illness among adolescents, after asthma and obesity.
Over 70% of sufferers will not seek treatment due to stigma, misconceptions, lack of education, diagnosis and lack of access to care.

SKIP AHEAD:
0:22 – Intro to Eating Disorders
1:38 – Bulimia Nervosa & Binge Eating Disorder
2:49 – Anorexia Nervosa
Eating Disorders are a collection of psychiatric conditions that involve abnormal eating habits associated with physical and/or psychological problems. There are many causes of abnormal eating habits, but if the situation is better explained by another medical problem it is not classified as an eating disorder. For example, a depressed patient who loses their appetite has an abnormal level of food intake, but does not have an eating disorder. Our discussion will focus on Anorexia Nervosa and Bulimia Nervosa which have many similarities. In both cases patients are preoccupied with food, their physical appearance and how much they weigh. They may have low self-esteem due to their distorted self-image. These disorders are significantly more common in young females. The treatment for both disorders primarily focuses on SSRI antidepressants and various types of therapy.
There is a significant amount of overlap between the presentation of Bulimia and Anorexia Nervosa. The key distinguishing factor is the patient’s body mass index (BMI), which is very low in Anorexia Nervosa and normal to mildly elevated in Bulimia Nervosa. Despite popular belief, you cannot use the presence of purging activities alone to distinguish the 2 disorders. Patients with AN can use things like laxatives and intentional vomiting just like Bulimia.
Bulimia Nervosa = Periods of overeating (AKA binging) followed by compensatory activities (AKA purging) such as intentional vomiting, excessive exercising or inappropriate laxatives use. Patients feel as if they lose control during periods of binge eating. BMI is within normal ranges or slightly high (greater than 20). Those that vomit may have alkalosis (due to loss of stomach acid), enlarged parotid glands, losses of enamel on teeth, or esophageal pathology. Those that use laxatives frequently may have acidosis due to the loss of bicarb. Although this warning is debated by some, current guidelines suggest not using Bupropion, an antidepressant, in Bulimic patients as they may have an increased risk for seizures as a side effect.
Binge Eating Disorder was recently added the DSM so it is unlikely to show up on Step 1. It has similar binging behavior to Bulimia, but there is no purging and the patients don’t necessarily have body image issues.
Anorexia Nervosa = eating very little and/or purging as a result of a distorted body image. These patients may feel like they are overweight even if they are very thin. They have low BMIs, less than17, and significant weight loss. Severe cases require hospitalization to correct starvation and the metabolic consequences. When a female’s body fat percentage gets very low the pulsatile release of GnRH from the hypothalamus stops and causes Amenorrhea. It’s like the endocrine system is saying “I can’t have a baby right now. I’m not even getting enough food for just me right now.” Chronic Anorexia Nervosa can lead to osteoporosis due to the low levels of estrogen. Can look similar to hypothyroidism with fatigue and changes to skin/hair, but the key difference is hypothyroidism has weight gain.
* The term anorexia is used often in Step 1 to describe weight loss and a lack of appetite, but that is different than anorexia nervosa which is sometimes abbreviated as anorexia. Anorexia can be used to explain a symptom of any disease/illness or a side effect of a treatment. It is not psychological in origin. In fact patients with Anorexia Nervosa do not have Anorexia, because they usually still have an appetite and feel hungry. The presence of an appetite can be used to differentiate Anorexia Nervosa from things like depression.

1. HI Kati!I love your videos!They are very helpful and you are so nice and non-judgmental!!
I wanted to ask Is it possible that I “made up” my eating disorder? I had some struggles some years ago because I started restricting my food- but for me it was totally ok, like a sort of “diet”-.I don’t have a clue why I started this “diet” because I was already underweight but it felt right at that time. The behavior was similar to anorexia (restriction , exercising but not “so much as other people, not so obsessively”, some days I could even “don’t care” about that, weighing myself on different scales everyday..I was obsessed with numbers) but when I compare to others with EDs I never feel the same and this confuses me. The fact it only (the behavior) lasted for some months/a year- when I started to talk about it with my therapist it all went away- makes me think it was just a phase and it wasn’t a real problem, even though i kept thinking about it for years. I haven’t been diagnosed with anything and my therapist just said “it was a problem” but later didn’t asked me about my eating habits or my weight and just asked about other things..
I’ve never being encouraged to change my eating habits or sent to an hospital or centre/clinic.
Am I exaggerating it to get attention? (in fact I’m pretty obsessed with anorexic body shape and bones) I cannot relate with ED sufferers who had been in hospitals where they force you to eat or in therapies specialised for EDs and are weight monitored.
I Heard so many times saying “It’s painful to have an ED. You cannot want to have one” but I feel like when I was restricting I felt good because my only thought was food and I could stop when I wanted to.
I feel like this impacted my life so much but I’m now wondering If it was all in my mind and I took too it seriously.
I’m not looking for an online diagnosis but my question is “Can a person just “imitate” an eating disorder behaviour and confuse it with an ED?
Thank you so much for your help.
2. Hi Kati! You and your videos are amazing and have helped me so much-so thank you!! I’ve recently been talking to my school counselor about my eating disorder/depression and many of the other issues I have been facing. She assured me that all of the information I share with her is confidential, but I have recently discovered that she has been sharing the information I have told her with my coaches, other teachers at my school, as well as calling my friends into her office to get information about me. How do I bring this up with her and how will I be assured that I can have helpful and meaningful conversations without worrying about confidentiality?

ARE U OK? http://geni.us/sva4iUY
In order to meet the criteria for binge eating disorder, someone must have recurrent episodes of binge eating. The DSM defines binge eating as 1. Eating in short amount of time an amount of food that is definitely larger than what most people would eat in a similar amount of time and circumstance. 2. A sense of lack of control over eating during the episode.
Then the binge eating episodes are associated with 3 or more of the following:
Eating much more rapidly than normal
Eating until uncomfortably full
Eating large amounts of food when not feeling physically hungry
Eating alone because of feeling embarrassed by how much one is eating
Feeling disgusted with oneself, depressed, or very guilty afterward.
We must also have been distressed about our binge eating, and it must occur at least once a week for 3 months, and the binge eating is not associated with inappropriate compensatory behavior as in bulimia nervosa.
Let’s talk about the cause: Obviously, they don’t know for sure what causes BED, but they do know that there is a genetic component to all EDs, and if someone in our family has had an ED we are 46-72% more likely to have one as well. In my experience, trauma in our past (abuse, frightening event, etc) can lead to unhealthy coping skills such as an ED. I also find that patients of mine who were placed into a body focused activity at a young age are more likely as well. I offer up those triggers or causes because many of my patients have said that they overeat as a way to numb out from a painful memory, or have been overeating as a way to make themselves unattractive (usually as a result of sexual abuse). Or there was so much pressure on them as children to look a certain way that they always felt out of control with food, and once they could make their own choices, they found themselves binging frequently. Also, many people will feel like they are eating to fill a void, and that could be an emotional void that was left by an emotionally absent parent.
Be patient. It’s a process, not perfection. You didn’t develop BED overnight so it won’t go away quickly either. And yes when we are doing the hard work on therapy where we are focusing on the true cause of our ED it can get worse at first, but just work at it often, and trust me, it can get better!

Why I Quit YouTube: Eating Disorder, Body Shaming

Hi guys. This is the most personal video I have ever filmed & uploaded on my YouTube channel. I was really afraid to share this part of my life with you guys because topics like these are often seen as taboo or have some sort of stigma attached to them. However the reality of it is that many of us suffer with these kinds of issues and the less we talk about them the more problematic they become. So I made this video in an effort to help those of you out there who are possibly going through the same thing and show you that you are not alone. I hope it helps somebody and I hope you'll be kind to yourselves as well as others.
P.S.Something that I didn't get to touch on in this video was fitness. I never worked out or exercised during my darkest times of bulimia because I was afraid of gaining weight a.k.a muscle mass (how stupid is that?? Only after did I realise how ridiculous that is!). Around three months into my recovery I started working with a trainer (Lucy) and I feel like getting fitter and stronger for the right reasons really aided my recovery a lot. So fitness can be a huge help, however always consult your doctor or therapist before starting any kind of exercise because it might not be appropriate for your specific eating disorder recovery. In fact in some cases, it's not advisable at all especially if you have used exercise as a part of your eating disorder (something which I never did, for me it was the opposite). However on the whole, I think that moving your body and being active is amazing for your mental health. And much, much healthier than cutting calories or trying to go on any stupid diet.

Why is EDNOS the most deadly eating disorder?? #KatiFAQ
via YouTube Capture
1. #Katifaq Is it bad to keep sh tools around because they make you feel comfortable? Like a security blanket. You have no intention of using them you just feel better when they're around.
2. Hi Kati! This sounds a bit stupid but im wondering if you can help me with this. I think i became depressed 10 years ago, (more certainly the last 8) with very little break from it. The last year ive been working on trying to improve this with work, socializing, hobbies etc. Its been very challenging but helpful. The prob is i still feel down, alone, lost, stupid most of the time, or like im keeping my head just above water (something just doesnt feel right) like the world feels empty sort of, the best way to explain it is that i wake up and the last thing i want to do is get up and drag myself through the day, but its improved so much on wishing i was dead almost constantly etc. My question is if we have been depressed for a long time how do we know what is normal? i dont know if ive just lost touch with reality or expect too much or something from life... i dont have a therapist and cant get one.
3. #katiFAQ I have an assignment for my wellness class (the class is about the overall health of our body and mind, it is required course to take for the college i attend) for the assignment we need to keep track of everything we eat and drink. We have to use this website to fill in all of our data. The website also counts or calories. Im sort of freaking out because this is really triggering, i already have the feeling that I should restrict my eating and this is making everything worse. I don't know what to do. Any suggestions?
4. Why is EDNOS statistically the most deadly of eating disorders?
JournalTopic
Thought this would be a good journal topic / challenge.
Reality TV has become a longer running trend than many experts predicted. Who would think that people would rather become so immersed in the drama of other people, when they have their own lives to lead? It's a sad fact that we have, as a society, become so preoccupied with sensationalism and the dirty laundry of other people that we have stopped really living our own lives. While social media may have a lot to do with it, it is also a personal choice. Try to avoid the excitement or sadness or gossip that is so easy to become entwined in, and start pursuing something you've been thinking about that will be more personally rewarding

6 Causes of Eating Disorders
1. Chemical
Many medical professionals, including scientists and physicians, who study eating disorders believe the problem can be tied to biochemical disorders in the brain. Specifically, it’s possible that an imbalance of certain chemicals in the brain can cause one to feel hungry more or less than they should, drastically increasing their chances of having an unhealthy relationship with food.
Sometimes these chemical imbalances in the brain can be remedied through the use of medications, but this is effective only some of the time. The use of medication in addition to regularly meeting with a support professional — such as a social worker, physician, or psychiatrist — can provide the help one requires to overcome their chemical imbalance and lead a more healthy life.
2. Genetic
One can do everything in their power to lead a healthy life — they can eat well, exercise, visit their doctor regularly, and make an effort to achieve a state of overall mental and physical well-being. But even the healthiest person can find their health affected by a genetic predisposition to a medical condition, from cancer to heart disease and even eating disorders.
In short, if your ancestors or members of your immediate family struggled with weight problems — whether that involves being excessively heavy or thin — you may encounter these same issues at some point in your life. In any case, it pays to be prepared for the challenges you may face, so be sure to ask your loved ones about some of the health conditions your family members have faced in the past.
3. Psychological
Individuals who find themselves in particularly stressful or depressing circumstances may be more likely to develop an eating disorder. This is particularly likely among individuals who have felt especially stressed or depressed for long periods of time, as it could lead them to use food as a way to relieve stress and alleviate persistent feelings of depression.
Other emotions that can contribute to the emergence of eating disorders include general feelings of low self-esteem; feelings of inadequacy (perhaps as the result of being in an abusive relationship with a partner, family members, or a group of friends); feeling that one lacks any control in their lives; and feeling as though they lacking a reliable social network.
4. Social
One’s social network and the nature of their everyday relationships can have a huge impact on their attitude towards food. Say, for example, that an individual spends a lot of time with people who worry about eating and their weight: there’s a good chance that anyone in that group of people will absorb that general outlook. Of course, the same could be said of an individual who spends much of their time in a social group where eating healthy and getting exercise is considered unnecessary.
Because it can often be hard to look beyond one’s own social group, it can require the support of medical professionals, like a family doctor, social worker, or psychiatrist, to help an individual recognize how their social group is affecting their attitudes towards food and increasing their chances of succumbing to an eating disorder.
5. Cultural
When it comes to determining the causes of an eating disorder, perhaps the most difficult factor to reckon with involves the culture surrounding the affected individual. This is because, unlike a social group, it’s virtually impossible to take someone with an eating disorder out of their culture in order to help treat them.
Put simply, cultural pressures can lead to eating disorders by repeatedly emphasizing the importance of having a thin and toned body. For women, the emphasis is often on being thin, toned, and yet having ample breastss, hips, and but. While men generally face less pressure to be thin, there’s a growing connection between masculinity and muscularity that leads many men to obsess over their bodies. For those who have developed eating disorders largely because of these cultural pressures, it’s crucial that those around them emphasize the fact that there is no such thing as a “perfect body.”
6. Interpersonal
This factor in causing eating disorders is similar to social network but often involves just one or two people. In this case, a trouble love life — such as having a partner who repeatedly shames his or her partner into feeling too thin or fatt — can have devastating consequences for the affected individual. Of course, this could be another type of major interpersonal relationship, such as the link between a mother and child.

ARE U OK? http://geni.us/sva4iUY
Many of you have told me you struggle with bulimia. Many have asked if that is in fact what they are going through. Today I talk about seven (of many) need to know facts about bulimia. I hope this helps you better understand what you or someone you love it going through.
1. Damage to your vocal cords. I have had clients who sing for a living or even high school students who try out for the spring musical. Purging can damage your vocal cords making your singing voice come and go. It can even ruin your voice for good or cause polyps to form.
2. Damage to teeth. Stomach acid coming up over and over again slowly erodes your tooth enamel.
3. Swollen salivary glands. It can make our face look puffy and they can even be painful to the touch. The reason they swell is because we are forcing our salivary glands to be overactive.
4. Reproductive harm. If we aren't getting enough nutrients our body will slowly cut off things it doesn't need to survive. Reproduction isn't something we have to do, so it can slowly deteriorate.
5. Hair loss and skin sagging. Due to dehydration and malnutrition our hair can skin will be damaged. Hair can get extremely thin and skin can become saggy and wrinkly.
6. Bone density loss. Many people who are malnourished develop osteopenia or osteoporosis because when our body doesn't get enough protein or nutrients it starts taking it from other places; mainly our bones and muscles.
7. Esophageal tearing. The repetitive purging causes acid to linger in our throat way longer and more frequently than it should. This acid as well as the force of food pushing through can cause our esophagus to tear. If you see blood in your vomit, please go to the doctor asap! This can be very dangerous.
This video is in no way meant to scare you. Instead, it's a way to inform you of what could be happening to your body if you struggle with bulimia or any other purging based eating disorder. If you or someone you love is struggling with this, please get help! Share this video! You never know who it could help :) xoxo

ARE U OK? http://geni.us/sva4iUY
Eating disorders can be scary and at times feel completely out of control. TodayI am offering up 7 facts about anorexia and why it's so important that we get help as soon as we can. I know recovery from an eating disorder is difficult, but know that you are not alone and you can get through it!
1. Bad breath. This actually has nothing to do with our dental hygiene, it really happens because we aren't giving it enough nutrients and our body is eating itself to survive. The bad breath that comes with EDs is very different from regular bad breath, and the only way to make it go away is by nourishing our bodies.
2. Heart problems. When we don't give our body enough food and nutrients it begins to eat other parts to keep us alive. One of the things it will break down is muscle. Since our heart is a muscle, this can weaken it and lead to heart attacks. I have seen this when I worked in inpatient eating disorder treatment centers. Please be careful and go get a check up asap!
3. Osteopenia & osteoporosis. Just like I stated before, when we don't give our body enough food and energy it will begin eating away at our muscles and our bones. It will leech the calcium from our bones to keep us alive. This can lead to the breaking down of our bone density, but if we catch it early enough we can usually repair it!
4. Skin and hair issues. Firstly our hair will fall out because it's honestly seen as an extra in many ways. We don't need it to survive, therefore our body will stop producing it as it looks for ways to save energy. Also, our skin can sag and age rapidly. Our skin needs fat, water and many different types of nutrients to look supple and smooth. If we are starving our body our skin will look starved too.
5. Cognitive functioning. If we are starving ourselves, we cannot focus or remember things properly. Our brain needs a lot of energy to function! Especially fats and proteins. If we aren't giving that to our body, it can't do all that we need it to and we may forget things, not be able to concentrate at work or school and we will struggle to keep up with our work.
6. Anorexia doesn't discriminate. It doesn't care who you are, what age, race or gender we are. Eating disorders are a coping skill and they can happen to anyone.
7. Recovery is possible!! With the proper help and support we can over come our nasty ED!!! Trust me, I have seen it happen for so many others and I know it can happen for you.
Please share this video! You never know who could be struggling or who may know someone else who is. xox

Anorexia and Eating Disorders | Biology for All | FuseSchool

In this video we are going to cover eating disorders, and in particular, anorexia.
You may not be aware of this, but four out of 10 people have either personally experienced an eating disorder or know somebody who has. So what exactly is an eating disorder, you may ask?
An eating disorder is a psychological disorder, so mental disorder, that causes somebody to adopt an unnatural attitude and approach towards food and their way of eating. The individual usually then develops an obsession about their weight and body shape, which in turn causes them to hurt their health as they make unhealthy choices about food.
Even though there are many eating disorders, anorexia is probably the most well known.
Actually called Anorexia Nervosa, but usually referred to as simply Anorexia, it is an intense fear of being fat that leads to restrictions in both the amount and / or the type of food that the person consumes. This particular eating disorder usually entails that the person is unable to see the reality of their body shape and situation, and sees their self worth as being heavily linked to their body image.
Eating disorders and anorexia may not seem too serious and you may be thinking that not a lot of harm can come out of this. However, anorexia is the psychiatric disorder that causes the most amount of deaths and in fact, every 62 minutes one person dies as a direct result from an eating disorder[3]. Death is usually caused either by suicide, or as a result of organ failure, typically the heart, as the body lacks vital nutrients.
So, who can get it?
Anyone can develop anorexia, but it is not, however, entirely clear why some people are more susceptible to it than others.
There are, however, a number of factors that make a person more prone to falling into it. There are certain personalities (such as perfectionists) and character traits that a person may have that can increase their chances of becoming anorexic. If a family member has suffered from anorexia, then a person has a higher likelihood of developing it themselves.
Furthermore, during times of stress, damaging family dynamics or periods of time when a person may be experiencing social, cultural and peer pressure, an individual is much more likely to have an onset of anorexia.
Moreover, women and teenagers are more susceptible to developing eating disorders, which is why it is estimated that the average age in which people start to suffer from anorexia is from 16 to 17 years old. However, it is not time or gender restricted. Anyone can be affected, at any age.
Anorexia is also not limited to certain countries or cultures.
(In animation show list of ‘Countries with the highest rates of eating disorders: China, India, the United States, Indonesia, Austria and France.)
Anyone can be affected by this psychological disorder. If you or anyone you know is affected by this, remember that there are always resources available, and people willing to provide support. If you do need help, want to find out how you can help others affected or simply want to learn more about what anorexia is, there are numerous websites such as https://www.b-eat.co.uk/ https://www.eatingdisorderhope.com http://www.anad.org

Eating Disorders Facts & Statistics

Learn some eating disorder facts and statistics.
Eating disorders may be more prevalent than you realize. In fact, the latest statistics indicate that more than 30 million people in the U.S. will suffer from an eating disorder, with 10 million of those being men.
Following are other facts about eating disorders:
13% of women over the age of 50 have symptoms of an eating disorder.
Children under 12 admitted to the hospital for eating disorders rose 119% in less than a decade.
Eating disorders have the highest mortality rate of any mental illness, with nearly 1 person dying every hour as a direct result of their eating disorder.
Sufferers aren’t always underweight; about 35% of binge eating disorder and 30% of bulimia patients are medically obese.
Anorexia is the 3rd most common chronic illness among adolescents, after asthma and obesity.
Over 70% of sufferers will not seek treatment due to stigma, misconceptions, lack of education, diagnosis and lack of access to care.

Eating Disorders: Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia & Binge Eating Disorder

http://www.stomponstep1.com/eating-disorders-anorexia-nervosa-bulimia-binge-eating-disorder/
SKIP AHEAD:
0:22 – Intro to Eating Disorders
1:38 – Bulimia Nervosa & Binge Eating Disorder
2:49 – Anorexia Nervosa
Eating Disorders are a collection of psychiatric conditions that involve abnormal eating habits associated with physical and/or psychological problems. There are many causes of abnormal eating habits, but if the situation is better explained by another medical problem it is not classified as an eating disorder. For example, a depressed patient who loses their appetite has an abnormal level of food intake, but does not have an eating disorder. Our discussion will focus on Anorexia Nervosa and Bulimia Nervosa which have many similarities. In both cases patients are preoccupied with food, their physical appearance and how much they weigh. They may have low self-esteem due to their distorted self-image. These disorders are significantly more common in young females. The treatment for both disorders primarily focuses on SSRI antidepressants and various types of therapy.
There is a significant amount of overlap between the presentation of Bulimia and Anorexia Nervosa. The key distinguishing factor is the patient’s body mass index (BMI), which is very low in Anorexia Nervosa and normal to mildly elevated in Bulimia Nervosa. Despite popular belief, you cannot use the presence of purging activities alone to distinguish the 2 disorders. Patients with AN can use things like laxatives and intentional vomiting just like Bulimia.
Bulimia Nervosa = Periods of overeating (AKA binging) followed by compensatory activities (AKA purging) such as intentional vomiting, excessive exercising or inappropriate laxatives use. Patients feel as if they lose control during periods of binge eating. BMI is within normal ranges or slightly high (greater than 20). Those that vomit may have alkalosis (due to loss of stomach acid), enlarged parotid glands, losses of enamel on teeth, or esophageal pathology. Those that use laxatives frequently may have acidosis due to the loss of bicarb. Although this warning is debated by some, current guidelines suggest not using Bupropion, an antidepressant, in Bulimic patients as they may have an increased risk for seizures as a side effect.
Binge Eating Disorder was recently added the DSM so it is unlikely to show up on Step 1. It has similar binging behavior to Bulimia, but there is no purging and the patients don’t necessarily have body image issues.
Anorexia Nervosa = eating very little and/or purging as a result of a distorted body image. These patients may feel like they are overweight even if they are very thin. They have low BMIs, less than17, and significant weight loss. Severe cases require hospitalization to correct starvation and the metabolic consequences. When a female’s body fat percentage gets very low the pulsatile release of GnRH from the hypothalamus stops and causes Amenorrhea. It’s like the endocrine system is saying “I can’t have a baby right now. I’m not even getting enough food for just me right now.” Chronic Anorexia Nervosa can lead to osteoporosis due to the low levels of estrogen. Can look similar to hypothyroidism with fatigue and changes to skin/hair, but the key difference is hypothyroidism has weight gain.
* The term anorexia is used often in Step 1 to describe weight loss and a lack of appetite, but that is different than anorexia nervosa which is sometimes abbreviated as anorexia. Anorexia can be used to explain a symptom of any disease/illness or a side effect of a treatment. It is not psychological in origin. In fact patients with Anorexia Nervosa do not have Anorexia, because they usually still have an appetite and feel hungry. The presence of an appetite can be used to differentiate Anorexia Nervosa from things like depression.

Could I have made up my eating disorder? #KatiFAQ

Thursday FAQVideo #KatiFAQ
1. HI Kati!I love your videos!They are very helpful and you are so nice and non-judgmental!!
I wanted to ask Is it possible that I “made up” my eating disorder? I had some struggles some years ago because I started restricting my food- but for me it was totally ok, like a sort of “diet”-.I don’t have a clue why I started this “diet” because I was already underweight but it felt right at that time. The behavior was similar to anorexia (restriction , exercising but not “so much as other people, not so obsessively”, some days I could even “don’t care” about that, weighing myself on different scales everyday..I was obsessed with numbers) but when I compare to others with EDs I never feel the same and this confuses me. The fact it only (the behavior) lasted for some months/a year- when I started to talk about it with my therapist it all went away- makes me think it was just a phase and it wasn’t a real problem, even though i kept thinking about it for years. I haven’t been diagnosed with anything and my therapist just said “it was a problem” but later didn’t asked me about my eating habits or my weight and just asked about other things..
I’ve never being encouraged to change my eating habits or sent to an hospital or centre/clinic.
Am I exaggerating it to get attention? (in fact I’m pretty obsessed with anorexic body shape and bones) I cannot relate with ED sufferers who had been in hospitals where they force you to eat or in therapies specialised for EDs and are weight monitored.
I Heard so many times saying “It’s painful to have an ED. You cannot want to have one” but I feel like when I was restricting I felt good because my only thought was food and I could stop when I wanted to.
I feel like this impacted my life so much but I’m now wondering If it was all in my mind and I took too it seriously.
I’m not looking for an online diagnosis but my question is “Can a person just “imitate” an eating disorder behaviour and confuse it with an ED?
Thank you so much for your help.
2. Hi Kati! You and your videos are amazing and have helped me so much-so thank you!! I’ve recently been talking to my school counselor about my eating disorder/depression and many of the other issues I have been facing. She assured me that all of the information I share with her is confidential, but I have recently discovered that she has been sharing the information I have told her with my coaches, other teachers at my school, as well as calling my friends into her office to get information about me. How do I bring this up with her and how will I be assured that I can have helpful and meaningful conversations without worrying about confidentiality?

Binge Eating Disorder - What is it?

Order my book today!
ARE U OK? http://geni.us/sva4iUY
In order to meet the criteria for binge eating disorder, someone must have recurrent episodes of binge eating. The DSM defines binge eating as 1. Eating in short amount of time an amount of food that is definitely larger than what most people would eat in a similar amount of time and circumstance. 2. A sense of lack of control over eating during the episode.
Then the binge eating episodes are associated with 3 or more of the following:
Eating much more rapidly than normal
Eating until uncomfortably full
Eating large amounts of food when not feeling physically hungry
Eating alone because of feeling embarrassed by how much one is eating
Feeling disgusted with oneself, depressed, or very guilty afterward.
We must also have been distressed about our binge eating, and it must occur at least once a week for 3 months, and the binge eating is not associated with inappropriate compensatory behavior as in bulimia nervosa.
Let’s talk about the cause: Obviously, they don’t know for sure what causes BED, but they do know that there is a genetic component to all EDs, and if someone in our family has had an ED we are 46-72% more likely to have one as well. In my experience, trauma in our past (abuse, frightening event, etc) can lead to unhealthy coping skills such as an ED. I also find that patients of mine who were placed into a body focused activity at a young age are more likely as well. I offer up those triggers or causes because many of my patients have said that they overeat as a way to numb out from a painful memory, or have been overeating as a way to make themselves unattractive (usually as a result of sexual abuse). Or there was so much pressure on them as children to look a certain way that they always felt out of control with food, and once they could make their own choices, they found themselves binging frequently. Also, many people will feel like they are eating to fill a void, and that could be an emotional void that was left by an emotionally absent parent.
Be patient. It’s a process, not perfection. You didn’t develop BED overnight so it won’t go away quickly either. And yes when we are doing the hard work on therapy where we are focusing on the true cause of our ED it can get worse at first, but just work at it often, and trust me, it can get better!

Why I Quit YouTube: Eating Disorder, Body Shaming

Hi guys. This is the most personal video I have ever filmed & uploaded on my YouTube channel. I was really afraid to share this part of my life with you guys because topics like these are often seen as taboo or have some sort of stigma attached to them. However the reality of it is that many of us suffer with these kinds of issues and the less we talk about them the more problematic they become. So I made this video in an effort to help those of you out there who are possibly going through the same thing and show you that you are not alone. I hope it helps somebody and I hope you'll be kind to yourselves as well as others.
P.S.Something that I didn't get to touch on in this video was fitness. I never worked out or exercised during my darkest times of bulimia because I was afraid of gaining weight a.k.a muscle mass (how stupid is that?? Only after did I realise how ridiculous that is!). Around three months into my recovery I started working with a trainer (Lucy) and I feel like getting fitter and stronger for the right reasons really aided my recovery a lot. So fitness can be a huge help, however always consult your doctor or therapist before starting any kind of exercise because it might not be appropriate for your specific eating disorder recovery. In fact in some cases, it's not advisable at all especially if you have used exercise as a part of your eating disorder (something which I never did, for me it was the opposite). However on the whole, I think that moving your body and being active is amazing for your mental health. And much, much healthier than cutting calories or trying to go on any stupid diet.

Why is EDNOS the most deadly eating disorder?? #KatiFAQ
via YouTube Capture
1. #Katifaq Is it bad to keep sh tools around because they make you feel comfortable? Like a security blanket. You have no intention of using them you just feel better when they're around.
2. Hi Kati! This sounds a bit stupid but im wondering if you can help me with this. I think i became depressed 10 years ago, (more certainly the last 8) with very little break from it. The last year ive been working on trying to improve this with work, socializing, hobbies etc. Its been very challenging but helpful. The prob is i still feel down, alone, lost, stupid most of the time, or like im keeping my head just above water (something just doesnt feel right) like the world feels empty sort of, the best way to explain it is that i wake up and the last thing i want to do is get up and drag myself through the day, but its improved so much on wishing i was dead almost constantly etc. My question is if we have been depressed for a long time how do we know what is normal? i dont know if ive just lost touch with reality or expect too much or something from life... i dont have a therapist and cant get one.
3. #katiFAQ I have an assignment for my wellness class (the class is about the overall health of our body and mind, it is required course to take for the college i attend) for the assignment we need to keep track of everything we eat and drink. We have to use this website to fill in all of our data. The website also counts or calories. Im sort of freaking out because this is really triggering, i already have the feeling that I should restrict my eating and this is making everything worse. I don't know what to do. Any suggestions?
4. Why is EDNOS statistically the most deadly of eating disorders?
JournalTopic
Thought this would be a good journal topic / challenge.
Reality TV has become a longer running trend than many experts predicted. Who would think that people would rather become so immersed in the drama of other people, when they have their own lives to lead? It's a sad fact that we have, as a society, become so preoccupied with sensationalism and the dirty laundry of other people that we have stopped really living our own lives. While social media may have a lot to do with it, it is also a personal choice. Try to avoid the excitement or sadness or gossip that is so easy to become entwined in, and start pursuing something you've been thinking about that will be more personally rewarding

6 Causes of Eating Disorders
1. Chemical
Many medical professionals, including scientists and physicians, who study eating disorders believe the problem can be tied to biochemical disorders in the brain. Specifically, it’s possible that an imbalance of certain chemicals in the brain can cause one to feel hungry more or less than they should, drastically increasing their chances of having an unhealthy relationship with food.
Sometimes these chemical imbalances in the brain can be remedied through the use of medications, but this is effective only some of the time. The use of medication in addition to regularly meeting with a support professional — such as a social worker, physician, or psychiatrist — can provide the help one requires to overcome their chemical imbalance and lead a more healthy life.
2. Genetic
One can do everything in their power to lead a healthy life — they can eat well, exercise, visit their doctor regularly, and make an effort to achieve a state of overall mental and physical well-being. But even the healthiest person can find their health affected by a genetic predisposition to a medical condition, from cancer to heart disease and even eating disorders.
In short, if your ancestors or members of your immediate family struggled with weight problems — whether that involves being excessively heavy or thin — you may encounter these same issues at some point in your life. In any case, it pays to be prepared for the challenges you may face, so be sure to ask your loved ones about some of the health conditions your family members have faced in the past.
3. Psychological
Individuals who find themselves in particularly stressful or depressing circumstances may be more likely to develop an eating disorder. This is particularly likely among individuals who have felt especially stressed or depressed for long periods of time, as it could lead them to use food as a way to relieve stress and alleviate persistent feelings of depression.
Other emotions that can contribute to the emergence of eating disorders include general feelings of low self-esteem; feelings of inadequacy (perhaps as the result of being in an abusive relationship with a partner, family members, or a group of friends); feeling that one lacks any control in their lives; and feeling as though they lacking a reliable social network.
4. Social
One’s social network and the nature of their everyday relationships can have a huge impact on their attitude towards food. Say, for example, that an individual spends a lot of time with people who worry about eating and their weight: there’s a good chance that anyone in that group of people will absorb that general outlook. Of course, the same could be said of an individual who spends much of their time in a social group where eating healthy and getting exercise is considered unnecessary.
Because it can often be hard to look beyond one’s own social group, it can require the support of medical professionals, like a family doctor, social worker, or psychiatrist, to help an individual recognize how their social group is affecting their attitudes towards food and increasing their chances of succumbing to an eating disorder.
5. Cultural
When it comes to determining the causes of an eating disorder, perhaps the most difficult factor to reckon with involves the culture surrounding the affected individual. This is because, unlike a social group, it’s virtually impossible to take someone with an eating disorder out of their culture in order to help treat them.
Put simply, cultural pressures can lead to eating disorders by repeatedly emphasizing the importance of having a thin and toned body. For women, the emphasis is often on being thin, toned, and yet having ample breastss, hips, and but. While men generally face less pressure to be thin, there’s a growing connection between masculinity and muscularity that leads many men to obsess over their bodies. For those who have developed eating disorders largely because of these cultural pressures, it’s crucial that those around them emphasize the fact that there is no such thing as a “perfect body.”
6. Interpersonal
This factor in causing eating disorders is similar to social network but often involves just one or two people. In this case, a trouble love life — such as having a partner who repeatedly shames his or her partner into feeling too thin or fatt — can have devastating consequences for the affected individual. Of course, this could be another type of major interpersonal relationship, such as the link between a mother and child.

This video shows that many vegans, including popular vegans like Freelee, Sarah Lemkus, James Aspey and Hitomi Mochizuki actually suffer from eating disorders. They may claim that they are fully recoverd now but in fact they just switched from one eating disorder to another.

7 BULIMIA FACTS you have to know!

Order my book today!
ARE U OK? http://geni.us/sva4iUY
Many of you have told me you struggle with bulimia. Many have asked if that is in fact what they are going through. Today I talk about seven (of many) need to know facts about bulimia. I hope this helps you better understand what you or someone you love it going through.
1. Damage to your vocal cords. I have had clients who sing for a living or even high school students who try out for the spring musical. Purging can damage your vocal cords making your singing voice come and go. It can even ruin your voice for good or cause polyps to form.
2. Damage to teeth. Stomach acid coming up over and over again slowly erodes your tooth enamel.
3. Swollen salivary glands. It can make our face look puffy and they can even be painful to the touch. The reason they swell is because we are forcing our salivary glands to be overactive.
4. Reproductive harm. If we aren't getting enough nutrients our body will slowly cut off things it doesn't need to survive. Reproduction isn't something we have to do, so it can slowly deteriorate.
5. Hair loss and skin sagging. Due to dehydration and malnutrition our hair can skin will be damaged. Hair can get extremely thin and skin can become saggy and wrinkly.
6. Bone density loss. Many people who are malnourished develop osteopenia or osteoporosis because when our body doesn't get enough protein or nutrients it starts taking it from other places; mainly our bones and muscles.
7. Esophageal tearing. The repetitive purging causes acid to linger in our throat way longer and more frequently than it should. This acid as well as the force of food pushing through can cause our esophagus to tear. If you see blood in your vomit, please go to the doctor asap! This can be very dangerous.
This video is in no way meant to scare you. Instead, it's a way to inform you of what could be happening to your body if you struggle with bulimia or any other purging based eating disorder. If you or someone you love is struggling with this, please get help! Share this video! You never know who it could help :) xoxo

The cause of eating disorders is not clear. Both genetic and environmental factors appear to play a role. Cultural idealization of thinness is believed to contribute. Eating disorders for example affect about 12% of dancers. Those who have experienced sexual abuse are also more likely to develop eating disorders. Some disorders such as pica and rumination disorder occur more often in people with intellectual disabilities. Only one eating disorder can be diagnosed at a given time.
